I wanted to send a second reminder about AdaCamp DC, which
will take place in (you guessed it!) Washington, D.C. on July 10-11.
We intentionally wanted it to take place during Wikimania since we
have a strong cross-over of attendees. So far we've had a remarkable
response from the international community, with attendees ranging
from everywhere including Australia to Burma, the United Kingdom to
Poland!
From the website:
"
AdaCamp is an Ada Initiative
event focused on increasing women’s participation in open technology
and culture. AdaCamp brings together people to build community,
discuss issues women have in common across open technology and
culture fields, and find ways to address them. Open technology and
culture includes open source software, Wikipedia and other wiki
projects, open data, open government, fan/remix culture, open
libraries, and more. Attendance is by invitation and attendees are
selected from qualified applicants through an open invitation
process. Attendance is open to people of all genders. The first
AdaCamp was AdaCamp
Melbourne, in January 2012."
